New: Collectibles! 

Support your favorite creators by collecting their casts onchain. Each cast can be turned into a unique, 1-of-1 collectible. Just tap the new "collect" icon on a cast to get started. 

Casts can be collected starting at $1. If there are multiple collectors, it goes to the highest bidder. Creators get 90% collectible earnings, and the remaining 10% goes to the protocol rewards. 

We’re excited about collectibles for a few reasons: 
1. Creators earn directly from their audience
2. New creators can earn on their first day
3. Users get to collect a unique piece of Farcaster history

Collectibles will go live tomorrow morning around 9am PT. We're announcing this early so people can be ready to collect their favorite casts when the feature is live!

Collectibles are now live!

You may need to restart your app a few times if you’re not seeing the collect button on casts. 

Only on mobile for now, web coming soon.

Farcaster Introduces Game-Changing Collectibles: Monetize Your Casts with 1-of-1 NFTs  

Once again, Farcaster is pushing the envelope with innovative features that reward high-quality content creation. What’s new?  

Collectible Casts – Now, any cast can be minted as a unique 1-of-1 NFT! If multiple people want it, an auction kicks off in USDC, where the highest bidder gets the NFT, and the creator takes home 90% of the winning bid.  

Why This is Big  
Direct monetization – No complex algorithms; earnings depend purely on your content’s value.  
Earn from Day 1 – New creators can start making money immediately—no waiting period.  
Exclusive digital collectibles – Users can own rare pieces of Farcaster history.  

How It Works  
Auctions run for 24 hours (new casts) or 7 days (older casts).  
Minimum bid starts at $1, with each new bid required to be $1 or 10% higher.  
A bid in the last 15 minutes extends the auction (sniping protection).  

Creators can opt out entirely or block specific users from collecting their casts. If a cast is deleted mid-auction, all bidders get refunded.  

What’s Next?
Farcaster keeps experimenting with creator monetization, and Collectibles is its latest bold move. Will the community embrace it? Let’s see!
